Thread: Brand new 2010 D4

Well it appears I may have found a brand new 2010 D4. Still trying to confirm details and get some pics but it appears that after it was purchased new, it was put in the original owners shed and has only just seen the light of day last month (November).

Information from someone who has supposedly seen the vehicle says it is dark green, so I am assuming Galway Green. No drivetrain information but I believe it is a 6.

The burning questions are,

• Even though it no Kms on it, it is 8 years old so it is worth pursueing (one of my relatives is quite keen on it) AND
• What is it worth ??

The full story and some pics hopefully in the next few days.

I’d be allowing to change all fluids and tyres.

Generally old unused cars get weird leaks due to seals becoming brittle including air cond. Don’t know how much to worry on a 2010.

Sounds good to me.

There was a D3 that came up last year that had demo kms only - around 6,000 kms I think. I've also seen a D4 that had been parked in the shed and had nominal kms - about 1500 I think.

I was interested in the D3 but they wanted $35,000 for it and it was the base model in any case. I spoke to an independent LR mechanic and they thought that because it had been sitting in the shed for years and had never had a service you'd have to drain and replace all fluids in the car - that, a service and new tyres wouldn't leave much change from $5000. So, $40K for a 10 year old car. I put that to the seller and suggested that they drop the price accordingly but they obviously thought that I was just low-balling them. It did eventually sell, and I've always wondered what they got for it.

Edit: and what if it was one of the occasional "Friday" cars, and it's faults just hadn't become apparent yet?
